In an experiment similar to the one you performed in Week 3, an experimenter measures the count rate of a radioactive element 10

0 times, calculates the mean and standard deviation of the data, and organizes the data into four bins:
Interval Number of Occurrences
n < n 15
< n < n 50 - 15
n < n < + 38
n > n + 12
The experimenter expects a Gaussian distribution. (For simplicity, assume 68 % of the counts fall within one standard deviation of the mean rather than the more exact value of 68.27 \%.) What is x?

Calculate the potential energy of a +1.0μC point charge sitting 0.1m from a -5.0μC point charge.
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

P.E.      =   -0.449 J

Explanation:

Potential energy of a charge particle in any electrostatic field is defined as the amount of work done ( in negative ) to bring that charge particle from any position to a new position r.

Now Potential energy is defined by this formula,

P.E. = k q₁ q₂/ r

where P.E. is the potential energy.

k = 1/( 4πε₀) = 8.99 × 10⁹ C²/ ( Nm²)

q₁ = charge of one particle = +1.0μC

q₂ = charge of another particle = -5.0μC

r = distance = 0.1 m

Now , P.E. = 8.99 × 10⁹C²/ ( Nm²) * ( -5.0 × 10⁻⁶ C ) × ( 1 × 10⁻⁶ C ) / 0.1 m

          P.E.      =  -0.449 J

A spring gun consists of a spring inside a plastic tube with spring constant, k. The spring can be compressed 20 cm from its equ
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer: The spring constant is K=392.4N/m

Explanation:

According to hook's law the applied force F will be directly proportional to the extension e produced provided the spring is not distorted

The force F=ke

Where k=spring constant

e= Extention produced

h=2m

Given that

e=20cm to meter 20/100= 0.2m

m=100g to kg m=100/1000= 0.1kg

But F=mg

Ignoring air resistance

assuming g=9.81m/s²

Since the compression causes the plastic ball to poses potential energy hence energy stored in the spring

E=1/2ke²=mgh

Substituting our values to find k

First we make k subject of formula

k=2mgh/e²

k=2*0.1*9.81*2/0.1²

K=3.921/0.01

K=392.4N/m

A straight wire of length 0.53 m carries a conventional current of 0.2 amperes. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field made
olga55 [171]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Length of wire, l = 0.53 m

Current, I = 0.2 A

(1.) Approximate formula:

We need to find the magnitude of the magnetic field made by the current at a location 2.0 cm from the wire, r = 2 cm = 0.02 m

The formula for magnetic field at some distance from the wire is given by :

B=\dfrac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}

B=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 0.2\ A}{2\pi \times 0.02\ m}

B = 0.000002 T

B=10^{-5}\ T

(2) Exact formula:

B=\dfrac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}\dfrac{l}{\sqrt{l^2+4r^2} }

B=\dfrac{\mu_o\times 0.2\ A}{2\pi \times 0.02\ m}\times \dfrac{0.53\ m}{\sqrt{(0.53\ m)^2+4(0.02\ m)^2} }

B = 0.00000199 T

or

B = 0.000002 T

Hence, this is the required solution.
